jQuery Conference 2009: The jQuery UI CSS Framework and ThemeRoller

Posted by FG on 09/14/2009

We were thrilled to attend and contribute to The jQuery Conference
2009 in Boston this past weekend. On Saturday
afternoon, our own Todd Parker and Scott Jehl teamed up to present “The
jQuery UI CSS Framework and
ThemeRoller”
(pdf), with a summary of our progress in the last year developing
Theming in jQuery UI and tips on how to leverage the jQuery UI CSS
Framework in custom widget development. On Sunday evening, Scott took
part in the lively discussion Q&A panel about the direction of the
jQuery and jQuery UI projects moving forward.

We’ve posted the slides from our presentation below in PDF format.
Please feel free to take a look and if you have any questions or
feedback, just leave a comment below. Thanks!

<p>It was definitely a great presentation, guys. And as always, the slide designs were refreshing and killer. Looking forward to when y’all open up ThemeRoller gallery. I think that would be a huge win amongst us jQuery UI users.

<p>While I couldn’t make it to Boston, I want to congratulate and thank you all for your work and the clear, explanatory blog posts that accompany it. jQuery UI and ThemeRoller give me direct benefits as a developer and benefits for users as well. I look forward to what you have in store for us!

<p>Thanks everyone for the nice comments and sorry for the delayed response! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the presentation at the conference. To answer your question(s), if you have a ThemeRoller theme you’d like to share with us, feel free to paste it in here or email it and we’ll check it out. In the future, we’re hoping to make the theme gallery more interactive with user submissions and voting, but it’s hard to say how soon that will happen.
